Informers

🙂 State-of-the-art natural language processing for Ruby

Supports:

• Sentiment analysis
• Question answering
• Named-entity recognition
• Text generation - in development
• Summarization - in development
• Translation - in development

Installation

Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:

gem 'informers'

Getting Started

• Sentiment analysis
• Question answering
• Named-entity recognition

Sentiment Analysis

First, download the pretrained model.

Predict sentiment

model = Informers::SentimentAnalysis.new("sentiment-analysis.onnx")
model.predict("This is super cool")

This returns

{label: "positive", score: 0.999855186578301}

Predict multiple at once

model.predict(["This is super cool", "I didn't like it"])

Question Answering

First, download the pretrained model and add Numo to your application’s Gemfile:

gem 'numo-narray'

Ask a question with some context

model = Informers::QuestionAnswering.new("question-answering.onnx")
model.predict(
  question: "Who invented Ruby?",
  context: "Ruby is a programming language created by Matz"
)

This returns

{answer: "Matz", score: 0.9980658360049758, start: 42, end: 46}

Named-Entity Recognition

First, export the pretrained model.

Get entities

model = Informers::NER.new("ner.onnx")
model.predict("Nat works at GitHub in San Francisco")

This returns

[
  {text: "Nat",           tag: "person",   score: 0.9840519576513487, start: 0,  end: 3},
  {text: "GitHub",        tag: "org",      score: 0.9426134775785775, start: 13, end: 19},
  {text: "San Francisco", tag: "location", score: 0.9952414982243061, start: 23, end: 36}
]

Models

Models are quantized to make them faster and smaller.
